As is true with most areas of Artificial Intelligence, there is
real need for a symbiotic relationship between the biological and
artificial - a need for problems to be viewed from many different
angles, and particularly so in the study of vision. The INSIGHT
consortium is taking steps in this direction. In a traditional
sense, the papers in this volume are represented by the areas of
neuroscience, psychophysics and traditional computer vision.
However, to gain deeper insight into vision processes, it is the
interaction of scientific ideas from these areas that is essential.
The scope of the topics discussed has a definite interdisciplinary
flavour: at one end of the spectrum we have experiments performed
and direct measurement of the responses of neurons to visual
stimuli; at the other end we have the mathematical and
computational aspects of optical flow (the relative motion between
observer and object) and approaches of tackling vision through
binocular disparities (stereopsis). Traditional edge detection
(essential for the initial classification of shape) is also covered
as is the study of natural texture patterns that occur on object
surfaces. A fundamental aim of the Basic Research part of the
ESPRIT programme is the pro duction and maintenance of a pool of
research expertise in Europe, from which both fur ther research and
industry can draw. As the authors state in their preface, this
project has not only succesfully merged the talents of senior
researchers from different backgrounds, but also brought many young
ones along."
